The 241st chapter is amazing(2/2)
Lu Li let out a long breath and a smile appeared on his face. Sure enough, my calculation was completely correct. After this knife, even if there was internal stress, it would have been released.
Next, we will test our skills!
Hollow jade carving is the most test of craftsmanship in jade carving.
Lu Li changed the thinnest and longest carving knife, penetrated deep into the hole, took the black spots on Tianhuangshi as the origin, and used the holes and cracks to carve the shapes of the dark river, waterfall and deep pool.
Compared with the original landscape ornaments, the newly added hollow carving will definitely lose more materials, but... not only makes up for cracks, but also more revealing the skills and unique ingenuity.
This hollow carving similar to micro-carving must be extremely careful, the hands must be very stable and the mind must be very calm. If a little mistake is made, all previous efforts will be wasted.
Fortunately, Lu left and died!
The clever mind makes Lu Li's hands very flexible and stable. Calmness makes Lu Li's mentality very calm, very calm, not panic, not anxious or impatient.
It took Lu Li a whole day to complete this fine hollow carving.
The engravings followed went very smoothly.
Modern jade carving equipment is faster than traditional craftsmanship, and the jade is polished very quickly. Hard jade is not much different from cutting wood under a rapidly rotating carving knife.
After one day, Lu Li had completed the main carving process, and only needed to polish and leave the author's inscription.
During dinner, Manager Wu brought a sumptuous table of meals.
Without wine! Jade carving craftsmen cannot drink. They are prone to shaking their hands when drinking... millions, tens of millions, or even hundreds of millions of dollars will be gone.
After dinner, Lu Li entered the jade carving studio again and continued to start construction.
The carving knife was replaced with a polishing head, and the surface of the jade was polished.
The newly carved jade looks gray and has no jewelry. Only after the polishing and polishing can it shine brightly and be full of treasure.
The polishing head is stained with polishing powder and finely grind the surface of the jade.
This process is to smooth the marks of the carving knife.
After polishing and rounding, vacuum and clean it for a second polishing.
Change it to a soft cowhide polishing head and polish every part of the jade carving. This process cannot be rushed. Take it slowly and polish it little by little, without damaging the carving texture.
When the entire polishing process is completed, a brilliant and shiny jade carving will be completed.
The last step is to sign the inscription at the bottom of the jade carving work.
Lu Li's inscription is signed in seal style, leaving two majestic and ancient seal characters "Lu Li" at the bottom of the jade carving.
At this point, the jade carving itself has been completed, but... it needs to be equipped with a base.
This kind of jade carving ornament is generally made of ebony carved bases.
The base materials were naturally prepared in the company. Lu Li chose a piece of ebony of the right size and carved it.
The shape and carving of the base must match the shape on the jade carving.
With Lu Li's craftsmanship, it is naturally easy to complete this pedestal wood carving.
After polishing and waxing the wood carving base, Lu Li placed the jade carving in the dent reserved on the base, buckled it in a tight seam.
"Done!"
Looking at the jade carving ornaments of Tianhuangshi in front of him, Lu Li nodded with a smile.
...
the next day.
Lu Li's jade carving has been officially released.
"Teacher Lu, your work... has been completed?"
Seeing the exquisite jade carving ornaments in front of him, Manager Wu exclaimed, "Teacher Lu, you are so awesome! The crack is completely invisible, it is completely gone. It is amazing! It is amazing!"
Manager Wu quickly took out his cell phone and dialed Mr. Jiang's phone number, "Mr. Jiang, Mr. Lu's work has been completed. Yes! The cracks are completely unaware of. It's amazing!"
After hanging up the phone, Manager Wu said to Lu Li: "Teacher Lu, Mr. Jiang will come over immediately. He wants to appreciate your creation."
"Welcome!"
Lu Li smiled. The jade carving work was completed and the boss wanted to take a look at it in person, which is normal.
A moment later, a middle-aged man in his forties who looked extraordinary, walked into the jade carving workshop with a smile on his face.
"Mr. Jiang!"
Manager Wu hurriedly stepped forward to say hello.
"Haha! Junior brother, I heard that you have completed your creation?"
Mr. Jiang nodded to Manager Wu, and walked towards Lu Li with a smile on his face.
"Hello, Mr. Jiang!"
Lu Li smiled and greeted her.
"Senior brother! I want to call you senior brother!"
Mr. Jiang smiled and said, "I am also Mr. Han's student. I'm your senior brother. I'll just say that Mr. Jiang is out!"
"Hello, senior brother!"
Lu Li followed the good deeds and quickly changed his words and called him Senior Brother.
But... Lu Li also knew that this kind of "sen brothers and younger brothers" was just a talk, and it was not the same as the kind of brothers who were like brothers in ancient times.
"well!"
Mr. Jiang nodded with a smile, and then looked at the completed jade carving, "This jade carving... is good, good craftsmanship, junior brother is indeed superb! The internal cracks have been changed into a waterfall and river? Very good!"
"That crack was carved into a waterfall, a dark river and a cold pond with hollowing."
Lu Li smiled, reached out to pick up a bottle of mineral water on the table, unscrewed the lid, and filled a little water with the bottle cap, "Senior brother, please see, this is a real waterfall!"
As he said that, Lu Li poured the half-cover water into the cold pond on the jade carving.
Then... a trace of water flowed out and the waterfall appeared. The trickle was endless. With this mountain-shaped jade carving ornament, it was actually beautiful and interesting.
"Okay! Good! The mountains and rivers complement each other, and the movement and stillness are suitable. Moreover, this lid water cycles back and forth. This is... the siphon principle? It's amazing!"
